Pacquiao-diaz Title Fight Sells 7,000 Tickets On First Day

[GAME]

David Diaz: Yeah, I think it is. I think regardless of the outcome of this, I think everybody is gonna be happy that Manny took this fight. It would a be a fight that people come to see back to the old days boxing. So think this is gonna be very good fight for this sports.


Cant believe David said that. He should be sounding confident. Pac is gonna have to be the boxer in this one but the way hes been evolving I dont think he will mind that role. Davids easy to see coming and Pac has the speed to counter him. A washed up Erik Morales who lasted 3 with Pac handled David fairly easily so Pac should be able to do a similar job .

Train hard, Erik advises Pacman
By Joaquin Henson, The Philippine Star, Fri, 25 Apr 2008
Erik Morales has some friendly advice for Manny Pacquiao who faces WBC lightweight champion David Diaz in Las Vegas on June 28. “Train hard,” he said. “Extend your training because if you’re up against a fighter who’s prepared to go the distance, you might find it difficult to stay strong.” Read Full Story >>> Philippine Star - Articles - -

Haha!

Morales' opinion on Pac-JMM 2:

“It was a close fight but Manny clearly won,” said Morales. “Manny knocked down Marquez and that made the difference. Marquez and his fans thought he won. You can’t stop people from disagreeing with the decision. But we must understand that judges see things some people don’t. They see different angles. They’re in the best position to decide who won.”

He and I have pretty much the same take.

I think this will actually be a guarenteed scrap.Diaz can not Fight backing and will lay in while pac will hopefully bye the notion that Diaz is but a belt-warmer and go out for the spectacular Demolition.Let the coronation for the king began l0l.Pacs left and sharp combos will eventually wreck All to willing Diaz but Diaz will not go sheepishly

I think Pacquaio is making this fight more exciting by training late. A very conditioned Pacquaio would mean an easy win for him against Diaz.

Pacquaio's camp could be strategically making his training controversial.That way,people would be having second thoughts as to the probability of an easy fight against Diaz.
